how are the 1000's of DA's and state prosecutors given such authority to "cripple" a Presidency?
Same way a random judge can halt a President's entire agenda.

Levin Says Trump CAN Pardon Himself From State Charges

In all seriousness, Levin needs to spend about 15 seconds thinking about the history of the Constitution.
REMEMBER, the delegates at the Convention represented the STATES. They were selected and SENT by the State governments.
What are the chances that those men would have given the President unilateral power to pardon ANYONE that he wanted to pardon from prosecution by the STATES for violation of STATE law?
zero

Dude sometimes it’s best to watch the game vs trying to play it. You may not look so damn foolish that way

You don't think the Democrats and Republicans would combine to override that veto with about 95% of the vote?

back to reality.
trump gets to plead insanity after his monday pretending how he really won.

Have you ever heard of the Constitutional "Supremacy Clause??" Any law or legal action in any state that conflicts with the Constitution is subject to the SUPREMACY of the Constitution?
Constitutional SUPREMACY is what Levin is arguing as the basis for Trump being able to PARDON HIMSELF from the prosecutorial misconduct and inconsistent application of LOCAL and STATE laws. That's why I say it makes sense.
What's your argument AGAINST the SUPREMACY Clause of the Constitution, since we both use the Constitution as our guide. Do you have one? Let's hear that.

Well the way the democrats would handle this situation would be:
Get IRS involved, full audits of the individual, plus their entire family and any friend they have spoken to in the last 10 years.
Get the DOJ involved to look for anything that could possibly be illegal. If nothing found get someone to write a report (or dossier) and then leak that report to the DOJ\FBI and let them use that as an excuse to investigate.
I could go on but even you know where I am going with this.
As brash and crass as Trump is he must be the CLEANEST politician to ever live. The only things that he has been indicted for are bullshite.

Im guess this case gets bumped up to federal court.

That's not an indictment, it's a political rant posited on the notion that opposing the leftist party line is a crime against the state. That's just part and parcel of Marxist doctrine.

Let's hear that.
I am amused that you really seem to believe that you just said something intelligent.
The Supremacy Clause is utterly irrelevant to the question of whether a POTUS can issue a pardon for a state-level offense. If lawyers had our own little comedy clubs, your post is the sort of thing that we would expect to hear on the main stage, accompanied by unanimous and uproarious laughter.

There's no line item veto to surgically remove specific funding. He would have to veto all funding for everything.
